How to OPEN and read pdf documents online rather than download, save and then read and delete. This only happens on some sites & started recently.

When I go on a website and try to open something (like a monthly statement of account, etc.) instead of opening it as a pdf so I can read Firefox makes me download it, save it and then open it. Then I have to go find and remove routine if I don't want to keep. Don't know why this started happening recently, and he disobeys on all sites.

Please, try the following:

  1. Open the Firefox Options window
  2. Select the Applications tab
  3. Locate Portable Document Format (PDF) on the list of file types
  4. Change the Action Preview in Firefox
  5. Click Ok

This should allow you to get an overview of most of the files in Firefox.

It will not work in all cases because some site contain codes to force the browser to download instead of the preview.
